DEALING WITH BRATS & RESISTANCE
Power Play Series
Don’t fear the brat—they'll pounce on your power! Resistance can be the secret ingredient for creating thrilling, juicy scenes. In fact, when there’s too much obedience, a little intentional tension can ignite the spark you’re craving. When you know how to navigate conflict in scenes, you'll be unstoppable. In this workshop, Nix will teach you how to lean into resistance with confidence, embrace power struggles, and turn playful clashes into deeply satisfying dynamics.
- Workshop: 7:30pm - 9:30pm
- Jam: 9:45pm - 11:45pm
Union Square Area - Address given in confirmation email additional info. This location is a walkup.
💡 What We’ll Explore:
🌀 The Dance of Resistance: Explore how resistance can elevate tension, creating powerful scenes full of energy and excitement.
⚔️ Power Struggles: Learn to embrace clashes as opportunities, moving energy instead of fighting against it, and finding the fun in the struggle.
🎭 Taming the Brat: Handle button-pushers with skill, turning playful defiance into a dynamic, connected experience of mutual satisfaction.
💬 Negotiating Bratty Scenes: Ensure alignment by setting clear expectations, so both parties feel fulfilled and surprises don’t derail the fun.
🔄 Getting Unstuck: Master strategies to break through stalemates and reignite the flow of power when things feel stuck.
This workshop will leave you equipped to navigate resistance, enhance connection, and transform playful clashes into deeply engaging power dynamics.
We are having a 2-part evening of indulgence and learning. Come for the workshop and stay for the Jam to practice what you learned and meet other like-minded folks!
Workshop Format:
- Discussion and Practical Exercises: The workshop will include a mix of discussions and hands-on exercises. You'll have the chance to interact with others, practice communication techniques, and receive feedback.
- Solo and Group Work: You can come alone or with a partner. During the exercises, you'll have the opportunity to switch partners, which allows for practicing with familiar partners and new acquaintances. This helps simulate both established dynamics and pickup scene scenarios.
- Dress Code and Interactions: Feel free to dress however you want, whether vanilla or ready to practice. Expect to interact with others for the exercises, at least in terms of communication and light D/s. More physical practice will be saved for the jam afterwards. We do not pair people up, and encourage guests to make friends and engage to their level of comfort ensuring that all are able to learn and grow. Couples can stay paired the whole time or practice with others if you so choose.
